I actually just got finished changing my oil this morning. Took about 10 minutes and only cost me about $10. I put 5000 miles on about every 6 weeks so spending $10 each time is a lot better than $80+.

I'm about to do mine today, the filter was $4.50 and the 5 quart jug was $11. No need for full synthetic in this car.

What kind of oil and filter are you using that can be had for less than $10 in total

If you watch for sales at the auto stores, that's not rare.

I use Mobil Clean 5000 which is $11 for 5 qts but I only use 3.8 qts. And I use a Supertech filter which is only about $2.50. So thats about $10 per change.
